Maybe Stop Trying to Change What You Do. Start Changing Who You Believe You Are

Recently, I’ve seen someone who struggled with feelings of “stuckness”. He struggled to change his mental state by changing his behaviour. He was trying to “fake it until he makes it”.

So we tried a more “top down” approach. We worked more on his identity and thinking. 

When we see ourselves differently and “be” that, changes in thinking, feeling and behaviour may follow more naturally. It feels more authentic and sticks better. Change is more sustainable.

Learn to see ourselves differently and lasting change may follow.
